Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

BST is dedicated to safeguarding your privacy and providing technology that allows you to have the most powerful and secure online experience possible. This Statement of Privacy governs data gathering and usage on the BST website. By using the BST website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Collection of your Personal Information:

BST gathers personally identifiable data such as your e-mail address, name, home or business address, and contact information. BST also gathers anonymous demographic information about you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, hobbies, and favourites, which is not unique to you.

BST also collects information about your computer hardware and software. Your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times, and referring website addresses are all examples of this data. This information is used by BST to render services, maintain the quality of the services provided and issue general statistics regarding the use of the BST website.

Please keep in mind that if you explicitly disclose personally identifying information or personally sensitive data on the BST public message boards, others may gather and utilise that information. Note: BST does not read any of your personal online correspondence.

BST urges you to read the privacy statements of any websites you visit through the BST website so that you can understand how those websites gather, use, and share your personal information.  BST is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the BST and BST digital platforms.

Use of your Personal Information:

BST gathers and uses your personal information in order to operate and provide the services you have requested. BST may also use your personally identifiable information to notify you about additional BST products or services. BST may also contact you via surveys to gather information about your opinion on current services or potential new services.

BST does not sell or lease its customer lists to third parties. BST may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In addition, BST may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to BST, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information. BST does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

BST keeps track of which BST services our customers access by tracking the websites and pages they visit through the BST website. Customers whose activity suggests that they are interested in a specific subject area will receive customised material and advertising from BST based on this information.

BST websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on BST or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of BST; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of BST, or the public.

Use of Cookies:

Cookies are used on the BST website to help you customise your online experience. A cookie is a text file that a Web page server saves on your hard drive. Cookies cannot be used to run applications or to infect your computer with malware. Cookies are unique to you and can only be read by a web server at the domain that sent them to you.

Cookies have several objectives, one of which is to give a time-saving feature. A cookie is used to inform a Web server that you have returned to a specific page. If you customise BST sites or register for BST’s site or services, for example, a cookie allows BST to remember your individual information on later visits. This makes keeping track of your personal information, such as billing and shipping addresses, much easier. When you return to the same BST website, the information you previously gave will be recovered, allowing you to use the personalised BST features.

You have the option of accepting or rejecting cookies. Most Web browsers allow cookies by default; however you can typically change your browser settings to reject cookies if you prefer. You may not be able to fully experience the interactive aspects of the BST services or websites you visit if you choose to reject cookies.

Security of your Personal Information:

BST protects the personally identifiable information you supply by storing it on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment that is free of unauthorised access, use, or disclosure. Personal information (such as a credit card number) is encrypted and sent to other websites using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement:

BST will update this Statement of Privacy from time to time to reflect company and consumer feedback. BST invites you to review this Statement on a regular basis to stay informed about how BST protects your personal information.

Contact Information:

BST invites you to provide feedback on its Privacy Statement. Please notify BST at [email protected] if you believe BST has violated this Statement. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify and correct the problem as soon as possible.
